test_late_span_finish

Late Span finish example.

This example shows a Span for a top-level operation, with independent, unknown lifetime, acting as parent of a few asynchronous subtasks (which must re-activate it but not finish it).

    # Fire away a few subtasks, passing a parent Span whose lifetime
    # is not tied at all to the children.
    def submit_subtasks(self, parent_span):
        def task(name, interval):
            with self.tracer.scope_manager.activate(parent_span, False):
                with self.tracer.start_active_span(name):
                    time.sleep(interval)

        self.executor.submit(task, 'task1', 0.1)
        self.executor.submit(task, 'task2', 0.3)
